I need help, please!!! I am a new Hermann's owner and new to this forum, my little guy is four months old and has a Upper Respiratory Infection and has been to the Vet with a round of five Batryl shots,and he is still showing signs, blowing bubbles and gasping. He is eating,defecating,urinating and is quite active, the problem is the Vet doesn't know what to do next, where I live the Vets know little to nothing about reptiles. She connected with a Vets on a network but was advised to use medication we may not carry in Canada. The vets on the network advised that Hermann's do not require extra humidity. I was under the assumption they required around 70 per cent??? I'm so confused. What do you guys think. Here are my care facts.
Basking Temps. 95 degrees
Ambient Tepms 80-85 degrees
Cool Side Temps 71-75 degrees
UVA/UVB Mercury Vapor Bulb 160 watts
Heat Bulb 100 watts
Radiant Heat Panel
70 per cent Humidity / Reptifogger
Exoterra Enclosure 36x18x18
was on sterilized soil now on towels
Diet:
Endive,Escarole,Collards,Mustard,Dandelion,Clover,Grasses,Chia,Chicory,Squash,Parsnips
Calcium/Multivitamin/Probiotics-daily
Warm showers nightly before he got sick now warm soaks every couple of days
Got him from a local Petstore
What should I do next, I love this little guy to bits and pieces. Any and all advice will be greatly be appreciated from you great knowledgable people. Thank you, kindly
